Which graphic is your fave?? 👆🏻👉🏼
.
We might know this statement is true, but we don’t believe it. 😆
.
So let’s get this good and believed: You don’t have to be exceptional to have gifts and talents. You don’t have to be the best of anything to enjoy it. 🎤 ⬇️
.
I wish I knew this when I quit dancing. It was a big part of my life for 14 years. I quit right before I turned 18 because I wasn’t good enough to be accepted into the performing arts program at my college.
.
What have you stopped doing because you didn’t think you were “exceptional” enough to continue?? 👇🏽👇🏾
.
I think regrets aren’t bad things. They hurt, for sure. But we can either wallow in them or learn from them.
.
For me, maybe I can’t go back and keep dancing and undo the missed opportunities. BUT, I can look for ways to grow the seeds of what dancing brought me: creativity, expression, movement, and performance.
.
Also, I’m DEFINITELY attending an adult dance class once life resumes as normal!!!!!!
...
This quote comes from one of the BEST conversations I’ve ever had on the show, an episode I did with @handlettereddesign that I released yesterday. #aboutprogressquotes #keepgoing #dosomething #aboutprogressdosomething

When we place our value, worth, and identity on ou

When we place our value, worth, and identity on our outcomes, it’s a lose-lose no matter what the results are. Why??
.
☝🏻Results aren’t static. (Even good outcomes won’t stick around and you’ll be right back to chasing achievements.)
.
✌🏽We truly can’t control outcomes OR circumstances. (Even the best of parents have children that self-destruct, even the best of bosses might lose their company, even the best of athletes might pull their hamstring.)
..
What’s the alternative? Do we just stay on the sidelines of life and not try?🤔
.
NO! We climb towards that summit, but while knowing all along the way that our worth and identity (who we are and what matters to us) is not dependent on what happens at the top.
.
We lean onto the messy process that growth requires without making the missteps means something bad about us. We believe that growth is coming even when our results aren’t what we wanted, nor when we wanted them.
.
With a strong identity, we can embrace BOTH the path and the view as we move from summit to summit, and traverse all the valleys in between.
....
More on this coming in my upcoming course release!! 🎉 How does this change things for you?? 👇🏾👇🏽

Do you ever think it’s TOO LATE for you to learn

Do you ever think it’s TOO LATE for you to learn or try something new?
.
I listened to an interview with Dr. Edith Eger @dr.editheger, a 93-year old psychologist and Holocaust survivor on @cathy.heller podcast. When she was 40, a mentor advised her to get her PhD, and she said no, because she would be 50 by the time she finished.
.
👉🏼He responded, “You’ll be 50 either way.”👈🏽
.
That hit me hard. And thank goodness Dr. Eger listened, because she has helped thousands of people through her work, all because she decided that she could keep learning and growing. That it was never too late.
.
What is something YOU would like to learn more about, whether it’s ourself as the teacher or more formally?? 👇🏽👇🏾 I’ll share mine in the comments!
...
This quote is from an interview recently with @mikjohnsonwrites who has taken on this attitude in beautiful ways. 💛

How would you feel if your worth was no longer dep

How would you feel if your worth was no longer dependent on your outcomes? 🤔
-
What would change for you if you had an innate sense of identity AND purpose, separate from your roles/responsibilities?
-
These questions and more are what I want you to consider this month as we “Seek Purpose.”
-
Too often, I see women waiting to find purpose in their life (and I was one of them!). They are waiting for a season to end so that they “can,” for the very right to have a purpose to be “earned,” or for a divine message that specifically lists what that purpose is.
-
💛Those times will never arrive.💛
-
The drive in each of us to feel that our lives matter is real—and it shouldn’t be ignored. It can’t wait.
-
I want to help you uncover that need for “more” inside you, to help you seek purpose in the small-to-big moments in your life, right here and right now.
-
What has helped you in the past anchor into innate value, worth, and purpose? What stops you from uncovering it now? 👇🏾👇🏽
. . .
Listen to the intro episode (ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT I’VE EVER RELEASED!) by searching for “About Progress” wherever you get your podcasts, or stream directly at aboutprogress.com/podcast #aboutprogresspodcast #seekpurpose #whatismypurpose

Instead, I learned to independently value and belo

Instead, I learned to independently value and belong to myself, and then bring that self to my role and responsibilities, including as a mother.
.
That shift changed everything. 💛💛 Not only do I feel happier and more fulfilled in motherhood, I can better accept the hard days (and they are often!) with more resilience.
.
👉🏼The resentment faded. And I somehow have more to GIVE.👈🏽
.
Your roles and responsibilities matter. But they can’t be WHO you are and solely where you stake your value. Otherwise, it’s like drawing from an empty, leaky well.
.
Bring your truest self TO your responsibilities instead of waiting for your outcomes to prove your value, and I know you’ll experience miracles.

Double tap if you want to be a 📚🪱 (again)!!!

I’ve been reminiscing that just a year ago I was

I’ve been reminiscing that just a year ago I was in Palm Springs attending @altsummit. Just one week after returning, we were thrust into homeschooling our kids, suddenly prepping our house to sell by owner (we knew we couldn’t afford to wait to see what happened to the market), and trying to work with zero interaction with those around us.
.
💛It feels like a miracle that we’ve made it this far. 💛
.
And yet, one of the biggest lessons for me from this time has been that we can’t wait. We can’t wait to love, to work on ourselves, to speak up, to try, to do something.
.
Yes, circumstances matter. Covid and its restrictions matter. But it’s also taught me that the perfect time will never come. And we don’t know what the future will bring.
.
👉🏼Do something. It doesn’t have to be ALL, it doesn’t have to be NOTHING. I feel this to my bones. 👈🏽
.
So while we have zero ideals yet circumstantially, what is something you are going to stop waiting for? For yourself, for others, to grow, to change, to find fulfillment, etc? I want to feel some hope. And I see that hope in you. 👇🏽👇🏽
....
This quote from @mikjohnsonwrites came from a new fan-fave interview last week!

If there’s one thing that’s certain, it’s change. 💛 When our lives hit a season of transition (from phases in motherhood, to career shifts, to relationships, etc.), we are forced to discover who we truly are outside of our roles and responsibilities.
-
Our guest this week, Mikayla @mikjohnsonwrites went through a season of change early on in her adult life. From her, we learn how to lean into the process of self-discovery by allowing messy exploration, cultivating new forms of joy and fulfillment, and being open to the possibilities.
-
I adore hearing from our incredible “Progressors,” women from this community who have /so much real-life experience to teach us from. You’ll see yourself in Mikayla, how you similarly might hit a moment of change, need to dig deep, push past your own fears, and uncover who has been there all along-your true self. 👏🏾
